Install Designer and Runtime

Open sample project

When you have FlexRule Designer installed, it also installs a couple of rule sample projects. You need to run FlexRule Designer and then open a project called Car Insurance using DMN from the Welcome page.

Click on the project to open it.

If this is the first time you are opening the project and you have FlexRule Runtime installed, there will be a pop up window that asks if you would like to update the project Runtime setting:

We recommend you click Yes.

Now you can use

Opening Linked Models

When your model is linked to other models and you are trying to navigate into the child model, FlexRule Designer will ask you to confirm that you wish to open and navigate to the child model in detail or just execute it (in which case it does not go to child model details).

Note: this window may hide behind the actual FlexRule Designer main window sometimes. Look for it on your windows task bar.
